A) medium B) average C) maximum D) minimum 18) Capacity is constrained when exceeds and the flow rate is equal to A) demand, supply, process capacity C) supply, demand, demand B) demand, supply, demand D) supply, demand, process capacity 19) Which of the following statements is TRUE A) Utilization of a resource is at its maximum when the flow rate is equal to its capacity B) Utilization of a resource is at its minimum when the flow rate is equal to its capacity. C) Utilization of a resource is at its minimum when the flow rate exceeds its capacity. D) Utilization of a resource is at its maximum when the flow rate exceeds its capacity. 20) Which of the following statements is FALSE? A) Nonbottleneck resources have a less than 100% utilization. B) A bottleneck resource does not always have the longest processing time. C) A bottleneck resource must have a utilization of 100%. D) Nonbottleneck resources have slack capacity. 21) Process utilization is the ratio between and A) process capacity, flow time C) flow time, flow rate B) process time, process capacity D) flow rate, process capacity constrained when and the flow rate is equal exce eds 22) The process is to the demand rate. A) Capacity, demand, supply C) Demand, supply, demand B) Demand, demand, supply D) Capacity, supply, demand A) If demand exceeds capacity for a longer period of time, the queue grows longer. B) The queue grows as long as the demand rate exceeds capacity and customers are willing to 23) Which of the following statements about queues is FALSE when demand exceeds supply? wait. C) The queue will shrink if customers walk away instead of waiting patiently in line. D) The queue grows as long as the supply rate exceeds capacityExplanation / Answer
17 maximum
The capacity is maximum flow unit which could be completed by a resource each unit time. We can find it by dividing the no of machines and processing time.
18 A
Unconstrained happens when demand and supply both are equal, Constrained means when the demand is more than supply and the flow rate becomes equal to the process capacity.
19 b. Utilization of a resource is at its maximum when the flow rate is equal to its capacity.
This statement is true because the resources are used at their maximum when the flow rate meetshe capacity. With full capacity and the reach availability of resources they could be used at maximum level.
20 c. A bottleneck resource must have a utilization of 100%.
The bottleneck of those resources which cannot be utilized or having problems n the utilizations.So100% utilization is not possible.
This statement is not true.
